Saddened by the Loss of a Great Client

Today we say goodbye to an amazing young lady. Ryan and I had the pleasure of shooting Stefani's wedding to Terri in the spring of 2008. Since then we had many interactions with Stefani and her fantastic family and are certainly keeping them in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. This picture is a tribute to Stefani.

May you rest in peace, we will think of you and your amazing spirit every time we shoot a wedding.

Donations in Stefani's memory may be made directly to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Northern New England Chapter, 114 Perimeter Road, Nashua, NH 03063.

Stay tuned for more shots of this little guy.

There are plenty more pictures to come!! Stay tuned!

Family Session Rockport Maine: Beech Hill

I posted a preview to this session a loooooooooooong time ago --- finally I am able to share the rest of the photos with you! Things have been CRAZY for me around here.

Anyway, I am happy to share with you one of my FAVORITE families!!

Little Lainey was not into looking at me for this shot --- isn't she a cutie tho!

Nick had been sneaking a funny face into a lot of his shots --- finally I let him and his sister Leah both make a funny face -- I love candid moments. I'm kinda diggin' the green haze too...what do you think?

Look at Macy and her million dollar smile! LOVE IT.

Ok - GQ or what?

Beautiful Leah - got a smile just like her mother's

Macy and John - LOVE THEM.

I love this location --- wish i could drive up to it though - i would take everyone here.

And we are onto little Lainey --- how can you resist the cuteness???

Big and little Sisters.

What a great family. It was so nice to catch up with them!

Hope you enjoyed the update!

Family Shoot Posted: Avery & Family Northport Maine

Before we did this session Avery's mom asked us if it was ok if Avery wore his cowboy stuff during the photo shoot ---- OF COURSE!!

How Cute is he?

Look at the smile - with the hat!! Priceless!

LOVE IT!

Look at those eyes - how great is this kid. 4 Years old and hes a posing pro!

I don't remember what Brandi said to him - but i just love the face. Brandi and I had a great time with him - he was so much fun to work with!

Avery with a little mom time!

Look at that million dollar smile!

Curious George came too!

Posted: Gabe's Session Northport Maine

Sometimes I still can't believe how his parents stand the cuteness!

I have been an editing machine these past couple of days -- basically because the three photo shoots i did on Sunday were AHHHH-MAZING.

Here is Gabe --- try not to get attached too much to his cuteness.

I got my exercise in this session - its hard to get a 2 and a half year old to pose....so i just chased him around. I happened to catch him sitting...pondering.

No more sitting...gotta move.

We had a cowboy theme going - check out face book for more on this picture soon!

and we blew bubbles.

HOW CUTE IS THIS?? He is showing us his muscles!!

Look at that FACE!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!

It was so hard to narrow these down to just the few - then entire session was amazing!

Another cute boy gets blogged tomorrow! Stay Tuned!
